╔══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗ ║ SILENCE THE BEAST ║ ║ Inspired by the world of A Quiet Place ║ ╚══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╝ ────────────────────────────── ▌VERSE I ────────────────────────────── Every breath is another loaded weapon, Every heartbeat echoes through the dead. The air itself has learned to listen, Every whispered prayer leaves another body red. We buried every name beneath the concrete, We learned to mourn without a single sound. Eyes speak louder than the mouths we're born with, 'Cause every word becomes another grave in the ground. The shadows crawl where voices used to live, Their hollow jaws are craving every cry. One mistake... One trembling syllable... And all that's left is asking why. ────────────────────────────── ▌PRE-CHORUS ────────────────────────────── Hold... Your... Tongue... Don't let the silence bleed. Hide... Your... Fear... They're underneath your skin. ────────────────────────────── ▌CHORUS ────────────────────────────── DON'T MAKE A SOUND! They're waiting in the silence— They hear the blood beneath your bones. DON'T MAKE A SOUND! One word and you'll disappear, Another ghost they'll drag below. Close your eyes... Bite your tongue... Pray the night forgets your lungs... DON'T MAKE A SOUND! Because the silence... Is the only thing... Keeping us alive. ────────────────────────────── ▌VERSE II ────────────────────────────── I watched a father lose his daughter To one broken cry inside the rain. No bullets... No mercy... Only teeth and endless pain. Now every memory is locked behind my ribs, A prison built from everything unsaid. I'd scream your name into the darkness... But I'd only join the dead. Our language died before we did. Hope suffocates without a voice. Still we breathe beneath the terror... Because silence isn't a choice. ────────────────────────────── ▌BRIDGE ────────────────────────────── Can you hear... The weight of nothing? Can you feel... The silence screaming? Every heartbeat... Every breath... They're getting closer... ────────────────────────────── ▌BREAKDOWN ────────────────────────────── KEEP... YOUR... MOUTH... SHUT! One... Wrong... WORD! BLEGH! THEY... HEAR... EVERY... FUCKING... THING! NO PRAYERS! NO SCREAMS! NO LAST GOODBYES! ONLY... SILENCE! (Half-Time) BITE YOUR TONGUE! CHOKE ON YOUR FEAR! IF THEY HEAR YOU— YOU WERE NEVER HERE! ────────────────────────────── ▌FINAL CHORUS ────────────────────────────── DON'T MAKE A SOUND! The darkness knows your heartbeat, It feels the terror in your chest. DON'T MAKE A SOUND! Your voice becomes the signal, Your final breath, their feast. When silence finally breaks... No one remains... DON'T... MAKE... A... SOUND...
